Earth To LAJA I’ll just be honest with myself and admit that I’m a sucker for flared skirts and off should tops (substitute turtle necks for colder weather) This is a casual outfit that’s comfy yet chic. I found myself gravitating towards it and I thought “Not again.” This one is from my fashion line, LAJA. The amount of flared skirts prints and plain alike is quite embarrassing but in my defense, flares are very flattering on most body shapes. It’s versatile, you can wear flared-on-flared (my personal favorite as you can tell) or tight-on-flared so it’s a win-win. I plan on shooting more casual outfits for different occasions so keep your eyes peeled. In other news, it’s crunch time for me. I’m a co-organizer for my school’s African cultural showcase and the show’s exactly a week from today so next week’s going to be very interesting. I’m quite excited. You know I love backstage chaos, hahaha! Wish me good luck 🙂 It’s also my burff-day on Monday but I’m most likely going to be stuck doing homework and getting things together for JABULANI. #LAJADay coming through! My roommate just mentioned Corbin Bleu’s getting married… What? Like what? Dayumm, time flies. Anyways, go to go now, off to dreamland. Have a lovely weekend and talk to you in a bit!

This Christmas Merry Christmas and Happy Boxing day! I went for a relative’s birthday party! Yes, she shares the same birthday as Jesus. It was a great time with food and lovely company. I’ve been visiting many family members and friends and it absolutely blows my mind that they know about Miss LAJA! Hearing the things they say encourage me so much and make me look forward to what 2016 has to offer. It’s officially a countdown! I’m going to keep this short and sweet as I just got back from a visit to my cousins’ place! I hope you enjoyed yours, what did you do? And what are you looking forward to this coming 2016? A little bit on the outfit, I’m wearing a vintage ankara top courtesy Mummy LAJA. The top is about 15 years old! I was like dayummm :O I can imagine myself wearing this outfit if I were spending Christmas or even the New Year in Las Vegas Imagine an evening consisting of food (obviously ), a burlesque show and maybe a party after, hehe; Miss LAJA bringing a touch of ankara to the Sin City 😉 #TheUlitmateVegasOutfit in my dictionary, don’t you think? A girl can dream but I wore this on a day out on Christmas day. There’s nothing I love more than a night out with great food and great company; life is wayy too short to accept any less. Coming home this Christmas to my family and friends redirected my perspective. Where would you wear this outfit to? I would like to know 😀 Don’t forget to check out the latest video I just dropped on how I tie my gele. I want your feedback! Enjoy, the rest of your week and I’ll talk to you in a bit.

All My Favorite Things This outfit comprises of all my favorite things in one place; ankara, leather, jeans, black and red. I absolutely adore how 90s this outfit is with the skirt especially. I found that lately my style has been filled with tights and short skirts or dresses. It’s a countdown till Christmas break and I must say, I’m not feeling completely overwhelmed like I usually do this time of the semester. There is pressure let me hastily add but at this point I would have probably cried to my mum on the phone at least once and cried five times more on my own, haha! That’s one of the ways I get rid of my stress when I’ve had enough. I’m glad with how things are now. Anyways, I’m keeping this message short and sweet as I have to start studying for my exams. I wish you all the best this last few weeks of 2015. Finish off strong! On another note, what do you guys think of the new layout and design?I finally migrated from Blogger to WordPress. Things are still sketch as I haven’t had time to really clean things up but do you like it? Please let me know your thoughts! I’m so elated that the ministry is moving to greater heights. All the best and I’ll talk to you in a bit 🙂 Outfit Details Blouse: LAJA Skirt: Charlotte Russe Shoes: Windsor Coat: Metaphor Always, Miss LAJA
